Welcome to Cross Shadow by Andrew Huff – Review & Giveaway



About the Book

All journalist Christine Lewis wants is the truth. All pastor John Cross wants is to avoid it.
Former CIA agent turned evangelical pastor John Cross is busy caring for the small community of believers he ministers to in Virginia. Journalist Christine Lewis is busy with the demand for her talents from top news agencies in New York City. Neither has any time left for their relationship, which began eight months before when they paired up to prevent the detonation of a chemical bomb in the nation’s capital.
But when Christine hears that her stepbrother has been arrested for murder in Texas, they team up again to discover the truth about the crime. Untangling a web of conspiracy, the couple finds themselves in the center of another dangerous situation-and in trouble far deeper than they expected.
With an assassin on the loose, a trusted colleague acting as a double agent, and unreliable artificial intelligence connected to mercenaries who have Cross on their hit list, these two may not get out of the Lone Star State alive.

MY REVIEW

I hope you are ready for an adrenaline rush. This story is pure action packed from beginning to end. I’m glad to be back with John and see him in action. How would he know that a trip to see Christine would place him in the wrong place at the wrong time? The author does a great job of bringing the two back together in another adventure filled with danger and faith. I love John’s character because he is a pastor first then a CIA agent. Okay maybe he is retired from the CIA but it is hard to tell when he gets tangled up in  a tech company. I have to say the technology is kinda  spooky and almost realistic. 

The author is good at keeping the action going with chase scenes and near death experiences. Is John Cross over his head this time? Will he walk away from his church or follow God’s direction? There  is a little more to the relationship between John and Christine which delves more into their past. It was a hard book to put down and I look forward to the next in this explosive series. 

I received a copy of this book from Audra Reads Book Tours. The review is my own opinion.
